Postpone Amona bill until after Trump inauguration, Lieberman says

WASHINGTON — The Knesset should hold off from voting on a controversial that would legalize an outpost at Amona, on Friday night.

Speaking at the Saban Forum in Washington, Lieberman suggested that Israel and the incoming administration Trump should have a chance to work out an understanding over its continued settlement activity. Several Israeli officials cancelled their attendance at the Brookings Institution event in order to be home for the vote, scheduled for Monday.
